Sexual healing is a questionable issue amongst the religious community. Many say that it is not possible to use sex to heal emotional pain (see reparative therapy). However, there have been numerous cases (several documented by Antonio Talavara) where a married couple have been able to resolve various issues in the bedroom. New evidence has since suggested that sexual healing is a viable option for married couples, or unmarried couples that have been in a lengthy relationship.
